apolgises for iphone pics. was the best i could get the grooving thats occured! anyone got any idea to how its been caused or whats caused it to happen? both discs also have a very small goove roughly in the middle of the contact area on the outboard side of the disc but no damage to the outboard pads

pads have probably been changed when the discs were half worn so there was a slight lip causing the grooves on the pads. and iirc my inner pads had worn more than my outer ones when i changed them but may have been a slightly sticky caliper carrier meaning the ineer pushed more than the outer. all seems good since i changed pads and discs and copper greased it all though.
